Management and Monitoring Capabilities

• Privacy (a.k.a Encryption): Protects against disclosure of message payload.
• Access Control: Controls and authorizes access to managed objects.
The default SNMPv3 username is administrator, with SHA authentication, and DES privacy protocol.
SSH (Secure Shell) Management
You may securely also manage the AP using SSH (Secure Shell). The AP supports SSH version 2, for secure remote
CLI (Telnet) sessions. SSH provides strong authentication and encryption of session data.
The SSH server (AP) has host keys - a pair of asymmetric keys - a private key that resides on the AP and a public key
that is distributed to clients that need to connect to the AP. As the client has knowledge of the server host keys, the client
can verify that it is communicating with the correct SSH server.
NOTE: The remainder of this guide describes how to configure an AP using the HTTP Web interface or the CLI interface.
For information on how to manage devices using SNMP or SSH, see the documentation that came with your
SNMP or SSH program. Also, see the MIB files for information on the parameters available via SNMP and SSH.
